TomL and Tom, my last response about centering the shock was more for TomL than TomD. Too many Toms around here I guess we just need some "Harry's". I'm not going looking for "Richard's"
TomL, I think maybe I wasn't clear enough and maybe you read a little too much into it. Get the shock where you need it, then figure out the length of the spring from that based on your artificial (mocked up assembly) ride height. If you have a delta that might allow you to use springs of 2 length's, let's say 9" or 10" and still get ride height and adjustability, then go with the shorter i.e. lighter of the 2 springs.
TomD, I have only seen different length springs on struts that used the OEM perches for the lower mounting point of the springs. Some tubes had been sectioned, others not. If I were in your shoes, and could use 4 springs of equal length and get the car set, that is what I would do. Otherwise SHUT UP AND DRIVE! didn't we have that conversation?
